Hi, I'm looking to pick up the piano. I learned a little bit of a couple songs and all of Mad World when I was around 11-12, but then I stopped learning. I have 0 knowledge of reading sheet music, or being taught to play piano. I just looked up tutorials on YouTube or looked at covers of songs and tried to mock what I was seeing.

Now that I'm a little older and want to start learning it again since I think it's a really great instrument and it makes my hair stand up when I hear a beautiful song. What are some good keyboards that have full-sized keys, 3 piano pedals, and the full 88 keys, (preferred not needed). I'm looking for something less than $1000. Also, what are some ways I could teach myself to play?

You don't need all three pedals, just a sustain and or a damping mainly. do remember this is a keyboard not a grand..

as for learning, get yourself into sheet lessons. Could be taught on youtube but to and aspect, a teacher would be your best bet but who knows everyone is different. What kind of stand are you looking into? i.e metal x strands, or a wooden table like set?

Preferably for me since i like my old keyboards lol..

Yamaha p-155 88 it is a weighted keyboard not hammer action so close but not the exact same.
Casio Privia px-160 is a hammer action, but same logic applies what kind of stand do you want.

Williams legato is also a hammer action one, in the time that i had it felt great. It is a great keyboard for beginners aswell as the p-155.

also, just start yourself off with the basics. you don't want to be that person who can lay advanced and semi advanced but not twinkle twinkle lol
